Here at Start Up, we don’t often get to hear from Content Editor Breanna Meyer, since she is usually at her computer with her headphones on, sifting through hours of unedited footage. Breanna is an aspiring filmmaker, and demonstrates her skills time and time again as she tackles the enormous task of turning raw interviews into a cohesive story. Luckily, we were able to catch Breanna during a break and get to know her a little better.

Fresh off of their recent appearance at the Dig South Festival in South Carolina, Start Up Television Show host Gary Bredow and producer Jenny Feterovich will speak at the upcoming Detroit Start Up Week Conference.

Detroit Start Up Week is designed around entrepreneurship in the Detroit community and will feature speakers in many different areas of business and technology.

More than 2600 attendees made their way to the 2016 Dig South Interactive Conference in beautiful Charleston, South Carolina. Founded in 2012, Dig South features presenters from across the country on topics like technology, business, entrepreneurship, marketing, media, entertainment, and culture. The three-day conference took place from April 26th through the 28th, with a jam-packed schedule of speakers during the day and music in the evening at several brew pubs and locations across the city. After the day’s sessions are over, it’s easy to find somewhere to go at night - Charleston is known for its stellar food scene and friendly residents.

Start Up Creative Director David London is always a staff favorite due to his wealth of knowledge about technology and digital media - he is fast becoming the person you go to when you have to solve a problem quickly and creatively. He goes out of his way to help staff with their projects to ensure that content being created follows the branding and look of the television show. His list of talents include graphics, marketing, video editing, audio, writing, music, and animation. We sat down with David to get to know him a little better and to give him a break from his crazy schedule of preparing for season four of Start Up.

Host Gary Bredow and show producer Jenny Feterovich have been invited to speak at the Dig South Interactive Festival. Dig South is a three day event - April 26-28, 2016 - designed as a meeting place for entrepreneurs, connecting them with resources to help empower their business.
